Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance be X.

According to the question Raghu covers 14 kms which is only 2/3 rd of the total distance of the journey.

∴ X-2/3 of X= X-14 kms.

( Here X-2/3 of X represents the balance distance left to cover which is equal to X- 14kms. As X represents the the total distance and 14 kms as the 2/3 rd distance.)

Solving the above equation

 X-2/3 of X= X-14

∴ (3X- 2X)/3 = X-14

∴ 3X-2X= 3X-42

∴ 3X-2X-3X=-42

∴-2X= -42

∴ X = 21

The total distance X is 21 kms.

Out of which Raghu covered 14 kms.

Therefore the balance distance is 21 kms- 14 kms = 7 Kms.

Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance be x .

According to Question ,

2/3 × x = 14

2x/3 = 14

2x = 14×3

2x = 42

x = 42/2 = 21

TOTAL DISTANCE COVERED = 21

2/3 × 21 = 14 KM COVERED ALREADY

SO , TOTAL DISTANCE - COVERED DISTANCE

21 - 14 = 7 KM IS STIL TO COVER
